Castle was never a bad map, always a crowd pleaser... and attract players... So just learn to love it...
i think we should put "swift" on the "regular" map cycles.. its a good map and i heard 0 complaints about it..
Here's the first one: It's a custom map. I personally think it's a candidate for an official release (maybe after some optical adjustments, also not before FREAKING CASHWOOOORKS gets released), but that won't stop players from quitting the server if they have to download. Seeing that this in an unproven statement, maybe try adding one (preferably Cashworks ) map to the "regular" votes on one server.
I think it's ''dangerous'' to add custom maps to the standrad vote option since, on for instance castle4, the server will go half empty on that map. But o the otehr hand, if we check on which custom maps are most popular with our players we can add it.
Hmm.. Maybe we should like have a poll about favourite maps, other than the regular maps (Goldbowl, badwater, gravelpit). Like steel, castle, fastlane etc. The winners of this vote would be added to the mapvote. Or the vote could be about the maps you DON'T want to see. Either way democracy would prevail Ps. Just a suggestion
Sorry to bring this topic up again, but what's the general opinion regarding hydro lately? This afternoon a full server emptied to about 10 people when it came on and it took more than half an hour of goldrush to refill (props to guarr and veer for helping me out). Anyone else feel like maybe hydro should be considered dropped or am I overreacting? The map stalemates all the time anyway..
hydro is way too long. One round is long enough But the map is difficult, have seen it fill on it too :lol: Nah we'll better keep an eye on it how it evolves.
yeh i'm fairly suprised at the return of Hydro aswell, i dont really care about the stalemates aslong as it have been some good games, wich i've mostly had on it the last few weeks we've had more consistent issues with Gravel Pit again :[
people vote for hydro, because the other 2 maps are either unknown or even worse.. thast why.. what i would like as a admin is initiate a vote for another map (nextmap, at rounds end) where people could say "yes/no" to.. (also handy for requests people are having) maybe its allready there though, but sometimes stuff dont work
In general, i dont like maps that only have 1 area. playing ANY map for 30 mins is just garanteed to empty the server. Hence my dislike for maps like Granary and Well. I liked that new map alot (dont remember the name), which had 3 area's and alot of places to hide, put up sentries etc.. P.S. i like Castle V2 (not 3 and 4 ... to messy). Hydro is fun also imho..
I love steel and goldrush so I'd hate to see them go (besides, no-spawntime 32 player is totally unlike normal play), but I'm all for badlands
